[Sujetsi]

The emotion in this song can sometimes be too much for me.

[nswanson92]

Thumbs up for God!

[Soundofstereos]

This is not a fucking religious discussion. Go somewhere else, comment on the awesome music for God's sake.

[rortwenty]

If satan reminds you of your past just remind him of his future!

[CoverEmAll95]

not bad *obama*

[ThePikpikcarrot]

@CoverEmAll95 9gag?

[CoverEmAll95]

@ThePikpikcarrot of course xD

[FeathersinFightArtz]

Jeremiah 31:4

This song...I could listen to all day long. BEAUTIFUL!

[emgrocks92]

am I the only one who gets goosbumps when Jakes' lows come in? Holy shit.

[ProGuidesForRs]

God Does Not Exist.

[jkr2680]

@ProGuidesForRs prove it.... I'm not Christian... nor an atheist.... I'm an agnostic... until you can prove it either way, nobody cares what you think....

[ProGuidesForRs]

@jkr2680 Well Played

[ytvvtyytv]

I don't give a fuck what religion these guys are, because their songs are actually good.

[Rollogic]

Not a big ABR fan, but this driving chill metal song keeps rolling around in my head.

[Andre22295]

@jjohnson4444

You wasted 10 minutes of my life fag.

[jkr2680]

@Andre22295 What life??



[runetotem1eu]

Like this if you stil like this song in 2012 !!!!!!

August burns red <3

[Army19D619]

@runetotem1eu How could you not?

[MrCreamyQ]

This is my fav song of them even with only four sentenses it's just so genius

[jjohnson4444]

doesn't give you the right to pry into ours. and for 4, that's all music is, it's peoples opinions, beliefs, backgrounds, "where they come from" even though that's backgrounds. you sound like the type that needs to "bag" on everyone because your have some high insecurity. so you pry on other people to fill that void of yours. long story short, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it at all. and in MY beliefs, idc if you asked for them (cause we didn't ask for yours) he forgives you.

[jjohnson4444]

matter if your a fan of what they believe in, listen to your own self and shut the fuck up and enjoy what's right in front of you. they are a great band for not only altering this music genre in the first place, but its a pretty tough argument to say that they are not that good. and for 3. you don't need to go around attempting to put down what they do or what people believe in because you have your insecurities. (yes your entitled to your own beliefs and no one should take that away from you)

[jjohnson4444]

to poopskintown : for 1, these people are playing some of the best music metal/hardcore/what the hell ever you want to call it, music there is. their instrumentals are outrageous. as far as lyrically, its what they believe in. it's not even just religion. its inspiration, love, change, and most of all a voice to be heard. for 2. if you are not a fan of "god" or "religion" but yet you claim for people to "shut the fuck up, and just enjoy what's right in front of them" is contradicting. it doesn't

[turbokittylol]

Im an atheist and I listen to this. Wanna kno why? cuz its music. Idc what their religious belief is, its them u kno? I dont believe in a god or a devil or heaven or hell. But just because of that Im not gunna talk shit on a band that has obvious talent just becuz of what they believe in. They sing about something that has meaning even if I dont agree with it. Theyre not like the mainstream music now thats all about ass and partying. Which is why I respect them.

[legnd1256]

its beautifull how 4 sentances can have this much power coming from them. <3 u august burns red

[APinkLeopard]

First 2 Lines Of The Song Are Bible Verses.

I Officially Love Them.

God Bless You ABR<33

[Eats247]

This sounds a lot like there cover of Carol of the Bells.

[20wayne20]

In some way this song has a tendency to move me in ways that other song can't if that makes sense.

[Erubus245]

AUGUST BURNS SHRED!!!!

[RudeWARRIOR83]

my girlfriend got me tickets to see these guys last summer, best present ever.

[wick3dking]

i'm so baked..

[skfrtc]

@wick3dking lol

[Bubbachung]

@wick3dking haha bro im right there with ya

[Th0m3v]

Truly a masterpiece made out of God's good taste of human likability.

[MrErikjg824]

This song gave me the chills. Amazinggg.

[xxxfrenchbastardxx]

more people need to take notice of this awsome band

[alonsojose98]

Powerful words

[xxxfrenchbastardxx]

The people who survive the sword will find favor in the desert. [Jeremiah 31:2]

I will build you up again and you will be rebuilt. [Jeremiah 31:4]

I am the painter making this mess a masterpiece.

I will rebuild you up again.

[djHayze810]

true talent lies here

[666wilksy]

i like the bit from 0:00-6:07

[SexualToasTi]

@666wilksy really?! cus I prefer the bit from 0:00 - 6:07

[clonksgehilfe]

I think I just had my first eargasm. Most. fucking. awesome. Intro. EVER.

[Leaveallwhoresbehind]

PURE EPICNESS! AWESOMNESS! MASTERPIECE!

[321pagani]

1:00 to 1:30 :)

[aceking007]

Amazing instrumental and when the lyrics come in,( they pump me up so much!) I think of destroying this planet..its feels good :)

[poopskintown]

I have never understood how any of this stuff really matters when it comes to music. Religion, race, and kind of segregation is torn down by the greatest kinds of music; metal is one of those kinds where we don't give a flying eff where you come from, what your background is, your creed. All we care about is that the music sounds good. So thumbs up this comment if you think people need to learn to stfu and just enjoy what's right in front of them

[volks77]

@poopskintown Amen.

[m1dlifecrisis]

@poopskintown its not just about the music.

It is also about the Message that cmes with te Music.

Especially for bands like ABR and TDWP and AILD and so forth.

[ThePikpikcarrot]

@poopskintown That's why a lot of metal artists have tattoos of a skull and cross-bones. It represents how when it comes down to it, we are all the same.

[yeahthrowingdownroc]

@poopskintown bra diversity sucks!

[faceheadunderscorer1]

@poopskintown August Burns Red uses their talent to worship. Now understand why it matters.

[crosswalkXpresspay89]

@poopskintown You just blew my mind. I can't agree more with what you just said

[sjulians626]

wow wow wowWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOW is all i have too say.

[rortwenty]

If you think Christs message is anything but unconditional love for you. Enlighten me but keep an opened mind.

[darkismypassion]

i am atheist,but those lyrics make me to put much more soul in what i am doying,i mean,to build everything from the begining,to start a new era again and again...with all the moments with my life:)

[CAlberto08]

This band reminds me a little of the old killswitch engage

[DavidPlagued]

ABR has to be the most powerful artists of this generation.

[DavidPlagued]

this only has 155k views? lame.

[Moulie415]

i love the way every one of they're songs brings something different ABR FTW!!!!!!

[Joelfish112]

This song packs some incredible messeges, I'm a Christian and even if your not, just listen to the lyrics, they're awesome!! :)

[TheHxclacey]

f\fsaygwengauern ahhh i absolutely love these guys <3

[fallllenangel]

[LostHero2k6]

this is one of the most amazing songs i have ever heared. each time the singer kicks in, i get goose pimples.

although i HATE religions (no matter what kind of), i must admit that the sound of this band is fucking awesome

[volks77]

Can someone explain me the meaning of the lyrics, from the bible I think?

[rortwenty]

@volks77 Its a chapter in Jeremiah. Read it

[uula28]

@rortwenty hahah NO

[volks77]

@uula28 He's right dude, it's in the bible.

[uula28]

@volks77 no they arent.. but they have a message to them.. but you can incorporate them as you wish..

[armyaviationproud]

@uula28 Yes, the lyrics are from the Bible. It's Jeremiah 31:2 in the NIV translation of the Bible.

[KkBeAr15]

@volks77 Jeremiah 31:2 & 4 [:

[fallllenangel]

@KkBeAr15 100% agree

[codyw130]

my b day is on 4 20 suck it

[rortwenty]

@codyw130 so was Hitlers

[armyaviationproud]

@codyw130 Awesome for you. Same birthday as Hitler.

[MikeM00se]

This song give me chills every time I hear it.

[marffgirl]

Only song I like from this band...

[nonsmiley]

the double bass is making my subwoofer a airconditioning unit :)

[Chucknoddis]

@ZakkyyAnima everyone cares about religion whether you believe it or not...however i agree the music is what really brought me here.

[piebaconful]

awesome song took 2 days to learn it 

[DeSchulz]

Love this song ABR rules \m/

[BrownRock4]

I can play 2:10 - 2:23 XD

[woogiepooh1995]

@BrownRock4 so can i

[bappo456]

most beautiful (non piano relax shit) song I think I have heard in my entire life

[spazzedoutfml]

looks like 11 people weren't able to be rebuilt.

[HeyHeyMey]

I want to have sexual intercourse to this song

[cheezypanda19]

did anyone else get pumped up when he screamed i am the painter making this mess a masterpiece?

[kodster360]

This song is beautiful.

[spazzedoutfml]

@getsome1015 killswitch engages songs are mainly about hear break and the emotion of being depressed all that remains songs are about internal pain and external conflict, fucking listen to lyrics ever?

[getSOME1015]

amazing drums, amazing instrumental all the way around. i just wish the lyrics werent so cliche. all these alternative metal bands these days seem to just put random abstract lines in their songs that could really mean anything. killswitch, all that remains, etc. every band with the same sound as this sings about the same shit... an abstract version of absolutely nothing. im not hating though, this band is amazing, jsut a little cliche this day in age :/

[xXRandomPILLXx]

@getSOME1015 I'm pretty sure They are quoting from the Bible.

[ItzBohbz]

@xXRandomPILLXx They are, its Jeremiah 32:1-4

[MrEgofreak]

@getSOME1015 So. People express what they believe through music. And belief, though it varies, often has repetitive topics in it.

[mriuliano]

@getSOME1015 this is not an alternative metal band by any means...have you seen how classical the riffs are? And it's a meaningful song...he's just quoting the bible through his experiences to help others make better choices. Stop judging and enjoy.

[mrstealyogirl2012]

@getSOME1015 theyre a Chrisitian band bro:) just in case yhu havnt noticed and most of their songs are about God or faith in Him

[24gadjet]

obviously they are religous... theyre drummer is jesus after all...

[trashthethrasher]

SAW THEM TODAY AT WARPED

[XvXValentineXvX]

@trashthethrasher I saw em at my Warped also. The best performance there in my opinion

[lslreverbnation]

I fucking love this band, they are such talented musicians, this comes from a guy who listens to pink floyd and a lot of really good classic music, they will be remembered

[mjsdemiar]

Thumbs up if you're listening to August Burns Red in the month of August!! xD

[strongyang]

@mjsdemiar

Let's make a September burns red and the rest of the months to keep this music alive ;)

[mjsdemiar]

[TheLeviathanXIII]

@strongyang May Blows Green ;)

[tomsupermanful]

[mjsdemiar]

@sjulians626 Like a boss!!

[jazmin1723]

Love this song amazing

[metaler551]

i am in love with this song <3

[DTR2GER2USA4U]

Do these human figurs, that pull on stings, that are connected to the sky, have a deeper meaning?

Or does the pulling at the strings have a deeper meaning?

Thanks for the answer

[oliverz86fly]

@DTR2GER2USA4U i think is just to accompany the song, nice observation though

[DTR2GER2USA4U]

@oliverz86fly OK thanks again.

I just thought it might, because it is in every video of ABR on solidstaterecords

[ben242011]

@DTR2GER2USA4U if you look at the album cover..it has a picture similar to that..it's just the animation they used for all the songs on the constellations album

[Thripi]

ABR is the message it you are religious or not, each one  will hear the message or the music ...

[UninsaneRocker]

@Thripi Exactly. I am a Christian but their lyrics can be an awesome message to non Christians as well. I want atheists and other religions to listen to ABR, I want non Christians to be just as into ABR as Christians, what these guys stand for is incredible and they do preach a message that is better than the stupid pop trash about sex and partying and what not. I don't mind if people are atheist or whatever, it makes no difference to me whatsoever I'm not one to judge people at all.

[HagenstadHomie]

@UninsaneRocker so true man



[aceking007]

@UninsaneRocker im Atheist and August Burns Red is fucking incredible!

[NTPMOFO]

@UninsaneRocker

Amen brother

[amaze0420]

@UninsaneRocker abr are leading the metalcore scene..... 3/4 of metalcore fans and scene kids dislike religion

[shootifyoucan]

@UninsaneRocker I was an atheist listening to Christian music for the longest. My Christian friend said me and my brother were the worst atheist because we listened to Christian Metal, some secular metal. He didn't understand how we could denounce the possibility of there being a God, and listen to songs that were inspired by God. Why I didn't believe in God? I had a bad view of religion. Saw too much evil, but when I encountered God I started seeing Good instead of evil.

[MrRomarl]

@shootifyoucan

There is really such thing as God

[NanamiManga777]

@shootifyoucan Unfortunatly i will always see evil and the world for what it is, i can no longer see a god

[SimplySosimple]

@NanamiManga777 then you clearly aren't looking hard enough!

[Pataaar]

@shootifyoucan coolstorybro.jpeg

[Metalwurst666]

@shootifyoucan ...and lost view for the evil happening in the world. nice story bro. i guess your life is easier now, full success.

[XlilRockaX]

@shootifyoucan you went from a full on atheist to beliving in god?



[shootifyoucan]

@XlilRockaX yes.

[SnoWho0]

@shootifyoucan Good shit bro! I am atheist and I realized that I listen only to Christian Metalcore xD

[Lovetek10]

@shootifyoucan Please do not state that you 'encountered God' as if it were fact. Your meetings with this fairy from the sky can neither be proved or dis-proved and so i would urge you to repent from continuing what you are saying.

[jkr2680]

@Lovetek10 it's his/her human right to believe what they want... and until YOU prove that "God" is just a "fairy from the sky" like you believe then I urge you to prove the non existence of the so called Christian "fairy from the sky".. hypocrite.... You can't prove it either... let people believe what they want, it doesn't hurt you in any way...

[Lovetek10]

@jkr2680 Sure it's there right, but do they have to talk to people as if it's FACT that he exists. And i can refer to 'God' how i wish, he does not have definitive image, and so could be described in any way possible. In this instance, i described him as a fairy from the sky, because he supposedly lives above us, and has magic powers.

[Lovetek10]

@jkr2680 Their* Also, there are many more ways of disproving the existence of God than there are of actually proving he exists. The bible is the only thing that could remotely prove his existence and even then, it's just a book, it's a story. You know what, I'm Harry Potter, and you better believe it since it's a book.

[anuj72]

@jkr2680 Actually, because of "God" our society has been setback for 1000s of years and many innocent people died. So it hurt all of us.

[plasticine86]

@anuj72 You're a fucking moron, do yourself a favor and get off the internet you pretentious douche.

[infamousforareason]

@anuj72 That was not because of God but instead because of ignorant religious radicals.

[jmjf7]

@anuj72 actually because of God your here.

[anuj72]

@jmjf7 >implying god exists

[FelixTheBarbarian]

@anuj72 >greentexting on youtube

ishigydiggty

[anuj72]

@FelixTheBarbarian a man can hope

[callofdutyguy247]

@shootifyoucan sad, you lost sight of the real light man, the real Truth...

[HateRegime]

@UninsaneRocker

I was just thinking about this - im an atheist, but feel that abr's lyrics tend to speak for all. and its good that they use obscure bible verses, doesnt feel like they preach, more like deep philosophical stuff :)

[kornhelius]

i cud listen to this song all day

[ibanezXph]

ABR is my religion.

[jayhawlk1180]

august burns red for life!@#!@#!@#!#@!@#!#!@#!@
